he absolutely deserved an oscar for that

My favorite movie, watched for 8 times...

1 of my favorite movies ever....very strong and touching.

Emile is my favorite :) I can't imagine anyone else doing into the wild. He was soo amazing!

I loved the last message Chris/Alex wrote in his book... "Happiness is only real when shared." He was trying to flee from civilization and human relationships and he wanted to be ultimately free, yet at the end he realized that being all alone in the nature does not make him happy.... Love does matter.

Into the wild honestly changed my life, couldn't have thought of a better actor to portray Christopher McCandless.

"into the wild" was INCREDIBLE!!

Chris was a genius when it came to life. He lived more in his 24 years than most people can even dream of. "Society you're a crazy breed. I hope you're not lonely without me."

My favorite movie. Favorite book. Amazing story. Changed my life

I LOVE Emile and this movie, I have never cried so hard in my life, great acting and sooo sad of a story.

that guy is so hot

omg i cried when i watched into the wild its amazing

emile is great i think. into the wild is kinda my craze, been through the amazing book as well. thanks for this.

Saw the movie and loved it! The guy is very good and I loved "lords of dogtown" too...he as a long and succesfull carrer ahead...

I love the way he talks - so slow and calm and without any "uhm's" and "err's" ;)

I'm in love with Emile Hirsch. Holy cow...

Into the wild is going to be Emiles best perfomance in his life, that movie changed my life!

yes, he is humble. I love how casual he is.

emile hirsh was like born for this role. He is a brilliant actor and into the wild is a brilliant and teriffic movie.

I LOVE EMILE HIRSCH!

I love u Emile! Into the wild changes your lives somehow

Emile Hirsch nailed this role to the "T" i wish more directors would see Emile Hirsch as a great actor and Movies need him to make THEM GREAT!!!!

that was an awesome movie emile is amazing and he seems to be an amazing man

What a fabulous film. Emile has a very fresh and different style of acting.

DUDEEE I love him. Emile & Chris

into the wild is an amazing movie but i absolutely love lords of dogtown...by far my favorite movie ever!!!

emile hirch is the love of my lifeeee :D

"I thought you looked sexy." He's perfect

the most amazing movie i EVER seen.

Love how he says "yeah.....we'll....see" in the end!

he's like young Leo dicaprio

into the wild was absolutely phenomenal..

into the wild was the saddest movie ive ever seen. ik its happy too but its just so sad. it sticks with you ! i love the movie though

into the wild is a movie which changed my entire life people

this movie is so under rated, more people need to see this movie, Chris McCandless - you are my hero! The ending of this film is beautiful and the quotes all the way through as well. It takes so much courage to do what Chris did, I can only hope to know myself to that extent someday.

Into the Wild was such an amazing movie, and to know that it was a true story based on his own writings makes it one of the top 10 films of the past decade in my eyes. I show it to everyone that will sit still for it.

I know what you mean. This story touched me also. I'm not too sure even why it did so. Or even why it meant so much to me. I cried at the end. The family really bared their soles giving all of us their story. I wish to thank them and Sean. I keep the preview on my ipod.

omg i have always thought that!!!!

1:26 best scene of the whole movie, i understood EXACTLY how he felt, best acting ive seen in a long time

Seeing him as himself now, he was perfect for the role of Chris McCandless, the way I initially imagined him.

This movie is just amazing ! Emile is in the league of Jame's Dean ! Such a heart felt and warm movie, really inspirational and touching !

Movie rocks, takes all of those things we contemplate in our minds and adds a heartbeat to it. Wish most of us could do what we are compelled to do.

hes really talented - i definatley keep an eye on him and see what roles he plays cause hes really going to be big - like maybe even Sean Penn big and hes cute and really down to earth Into the Wild is a great movie peace

he gained all my respect with his work ion into the wild. NO ONE could have done it better.

i love when the blonde asked him if he had any contact with his family during this even though he had already said that didn't and he was like...no...he..completely...dropped....off..the...map lol

into the wild was by far, one of the hardest movies to act in. and emile did an amazing job.

emile rocks :]

one of the best movies i ve ever seen..!

omg he was so cute in lords of dogtown

to me, he is a great actor, the film is one of the most inspiring films you can watch,

Emile put in an AWESOME performance. I have had a great deal of respect for him since he played Jay Adams in"Lords of Dogtown". He deserves an Oscar for his work in this movie. Emile please skip the next offer for a movie like "Speed Racer" and make another movie like this.

omg hes so cute!!!

such a GREAT film and book

he's so calm and funny :P "what'd you think of my hair ?" "i thought you looked sexy." "speed racer should be good !" "yeah we'll see" I LOVE HIM, HE'S SO COOL.

Wow I just watched this and the way he said it was kind of foreshadowing of how bad it did huh.....but I loved it!

he's gorgeous!

i srslyloved the movie me luv him

ITA - he's very talented and seems like such a sweet, humble guy

love imaginary heroes

Now thats a good list!

Chris suffered from family pressure in his life, plus he was sensitive. Put them together. Hated the pressure, what he saw and was stuck. He went into the wild for two reasons. To get out of his ego that the society had built in him that he could not remove and to remove himself from paid. The first is noble, the second isnt. Dealing with pain is difficult. But there can be balance in society. people have done it. However yes, there are people who like wild living as a means for life.

Don't miss the documentary Summit on the Summit where Emile Hirsh, Jessica Biel, Alexandra Cousteau, Kenna, Lupe Fiasco and Shanti Gold climb the Kilimanjaro to raise awareness on the lack of clean water in Africa. Little did he know by the time he made Into the Wild that the true wildest thoughest journey of his life was to happen in 2010.

YA, Emile is the hottest in speed racer i have watched that movie so much because of him

Into the wild is Emile's best work so far!

haha, i thought i was the only one who noticed his way of speaking. i think it's endearing. it seems like he really chooses his words carefully.

best actor ever

WOW. Didn't know who the interview was actually for until the 28 second mark. lmao

i love him! he's has the looks of half of Leonardo DiCaprio and half of Shane West. He's soooo gorgeous :))

no Chris McCandless died in Alaska after 130 odd days in the wild .. the movie and book was written in conjunction with his family so everything we see is accurate. absolutely brilliant movie. one of the best

EMILE i LOVE you!!!!!!! I love him in imaginary heros whoever hasnt seen it go rent it! He is soooo HOT!

Best movie ever made

he is sooo adorble i lovee him in alpha dog

he's like.. SOOO CUTE.

He wasn't pretending to be something he isn't. He was being what we all are in first place: animals. The social part comes after that. This young man had nothing to stop him from doing this. He had no connection with his parents and neither with school mates. He only had his sister. For him, relationships were bullshit. So, if humans are a social animal and he has no connections with society, he is just an animal. This guy, my friend, he had balls, thing that you probably don't have.

I know him from the movie The girl next door

i totally agree

@Dalaneyhxc though he won the best award of any other possible...people who saw this movie, loved it and him...:)

what an inspirational coment man, brilliant coment ! thank you !

this movie is tight i like the love story of him and tracy

A lot of people who are very smart and sensitive will suffer. The same with artists. Thats known. I think he did the unthinkable which was amazing, but there's no doubt that his emotional side was immature and probably very complicated.

no movie has touched my heart like this one did, and im no wussy. iv'e killed people and ripped their hearts out and fed it to them, then pissed on them...but this movie made me cry : (

yeah, I was very inspired by mccandless- I live by his philosphy. (feel strong >be strong)) However, he underestimated nature; something far greater than himself

Top Ten of the Past Decade: 1. The Dark Knight 2. Wall-E 3. The Departed 4. Casino Royale 5. Into the Wild 6. Magnolia 7. Star Trek 8. Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix 9. Fight Club 10. The Matrix

Yeah, I got that. I was paraphrasing the anchors. Sorry it was confusing.

He's amazing in the girl next door

i remember seeing this guy in venice at the middle of the night and thought...wait is he really that short? but he ended up being a really cool guy

yeah have to agree, it is rather endearing :)

@adiostraitorobama sounds great!!!! will you really wait for 4 years?! itll be so awsome!!!!!! btw what country r u from???

fking amazing it makes me want piss off and leave london for good terrific film best i,ve seen in years

He was like "ok stop behing idiots and make the damn interview" xD

@MyUsername156 I was just trying to think who he reminded me of, but coulddn't think of the mans name! He totally does!

God this movie make me wants to throw all my belongings in the garbage and just go. Go anywhere. Such a moving film/story.

he acted greatly in this movie.

Its about querying what you want out of life i think. Chris's queries were a mixed bag. He wanted out; natural inspiration to break his ego structure and to be as close to enlightened as possible but also, he felt very let down in other ways. Some people escape pain through drugs, sex, alcohol, obsessions. He might have done that through societal abstinence. Its existential too. He was very philosophical, he loved intellectual books. He questioned structures and he applied them to himself as wel

@Schomyly Thats sooo cool hahahaha. Thats a new trick i learnt, Thanks lol.

@Sidoti8 We know now that he didn't die of poisoning. He died from starvation. He had been surviving on rabbits, and while that may sustain a healthy man for a short while, he was already half starving. It was an easy mistake to make- it'd be easy to think that eating rabbits and small game was enough.

@Dalaneyhxc well i guess this just shows what alexander said about society in the bar. we can't spect everyone to love it. in fact, that makes this movie even better ;)

If you loved the movie, Read the book. I read it and I understand Chris alot better.

@Schomyly its with 1, 2, 3, 4 all of number key

@thegman2 i agree!
